I am new in this community so let me introduce myself. I am Cherrymae Decierdo and I am a home-based online teacher living in Mandaue City, Philippines. I work at home since the pandemic began and that is the reason why I become fond of online shopping.
Online shopping has become a stress reliever for me especially when I see the status says "Parcel is out for delivery." That really excites me to the point that I already know all the delivery drivers in my home.
This week's question number 1 really intrigues me to share my addiction to online shopping and also my experiences.
With the arrival of the global pandemic, online commerce has grown into something routine. Do you like shopping online? Have you had a bad purchase, the product you ordered did not arrive on time, or was not what was expected? Tell us about your experience or if you still don't buy online, tell us the reason.
YES!! Shopping online becomes a habit for me since the pandemic began but I was not really a fan of shopping in general. This habit started when I downloaded the TikTok application and I saw many people posting what they buy on Shoppee and I was curious about it.
Shopee is the most popular online shopping application here in the Philippines and around Southeast Asia including Taiwan. There is actually another online shopping application that is similar to Shopee but I find it difficult and confusing to use. On the other hand, the shop is very easy to use and it much simpler than Lazada.
Moving on....
Shopee products are very cheap and tempting because of their huge sales every month and especially during the holiday season. I was lured into buying things impulsively that I didn't read the reviews and feedback from the other customer because of the temptation of the sales and the fear of the product being "sold out".
I was also more tempted when Shopee made a feature of Shopee's Buy-Now-Pay-Later or "SPAYLATER" payment method. You can make a purchase immediately and pay for it next month, or as installments across a few months. It was really tempting but I have learned to control myself to buy one thing only in a month.
Have you had a bad purchase, the product you ordered did not arrive on time or was not what was expected? Tell us about your experience or if you still don't buy online, tell us the reason.
I am a fat person and it's difficult to find clothes online that are true to my size. I had a bad experience buying LARGE and EXTRA LARGE clothes because when I try to fit them, it was too small for me. I tried many shops but it was all the same. The quality of the clothes was not that good too but it's totally reasonable because of the cheap prices.
When in terms of deliveries, it's totally understandable that it will take almost 3 weeks or a month to be delivered especially if the items are from China.
Nevertheless, I will still continue buying in this application because of the nice feature of Shopee and I have learned to look for legit shops that offer better quality.
Here are some of the best purchases I bought online.
My recent purchase for this month was a helmet and it was actually good. I also received a temporarily increased credit for my SPAYLATER and I am now tempted again. I will probably use it to buy something useful for my job.
